Royal Enfield Bullet in Bikes & Motorcycle Directory

My name is Ronnie Jacob. I was born on the 18th in the scorching summer month of June 1968, in India. I grew up in townships and suburbs. Thirtyone years later, I still live in a suburb. The first 22 years of life were spent in a small industrial town called Kanpur, in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh, in India. My earliest memories are of my bright red tricycle. By the time I was 12, I was the terror of the neighborhood. We were constantly up and down peoples private property and their trees looting and pillaging blue berry, guava and mangoes depending on what was in season. With the onset of summer vacations came, freedom. My friends and my parents, to get us out of their hair lifted all curfew restrictions. We were out of our houses before daybreak, walking more than one and a half kilometers to the railway line, to see trains. There were very long goods trains, there were tanker trains, there were local shuttle trains and then there was the glorious especially for us in those days, Rajdhani Express, Indian Railways pride The Rajdhani Express traveled at speeds in excess of a 100 kilometers per hour. The slip stream caused by it was like nothing we had ever experienced before. And we used to religiously carry coins with us which we used to keep on the railway track, for the train to pass over, hoping that it would turn into a magnet. It never did.
